flash actionscript: I don't know if this is advice or just some more insight to flash sound
but....

How many sounds do you have going at once?
Flash can only handle 8 channels.
I don't know if you can get a property that shows you how many of the
eight are "busy"

but there is a command

stopAllSounds()

which clears all eight channels

Does anyone know, can you see if a channel is busy, once the sound stops
playing in that channel, does that channel automatically free up, is there a
way to flush dead channels? basically, I have created this random sound class
which is controlled by a global pan and volume class to created environmental
sounds that change as you move through a building, etho some of my sound from
my video is now dropping out, ie once a random sound finishes playing, it
doesnt seem to clear its channel making way for a new sound.

Anyone got some sound advice :)

cheers
